The City of Miami Beach, in partnership with the Florida Department of Transportation, implemented a flood mitigation program along the Indian Creek Drive/SR A1A corridor. The improvement included the installation of a pump station, elevation of the existing roadway, and sidewalks as part of the enhanced flooding solution. DuroMaxx®SPRE pipe was selected as the best option to convey the water from the pump station to the outfall.
When a deteriorating, 80 year old bridge providing access to Whiteface Mountain needed to be replaced, a twin BEBO®Bridge Concrete Arch Systemwas chosen as the best replacement option for its quick installation.
During planning stages of Plat 7 of the Crosshaven residential development, Hubbell Homes determined that a structure was needed to convey the significant 100 year storm flows. A MULTI-PLATE®Ellipse was selected as the best solution.
Griffin Farms, a $200M mixed-use housing development, needed a robust stormwater management system. As the best solution, a corrugated metal pipe (CMP) detention system was selected for its cost efficiency and small footprint, while aCDS hydrodynamic separator was utilized to pretreat the underground system.
The new geosynthetic reinforced soil integrated bridge system, with Keystone’s Compac®III retaining wall block, was the best design solution for Florida DOT’s Lake Kissimmee State Park bridge.
Stormwater design trends come and go. Some design methodologies have disappeared, only to return later or in a nearby geography as the “new” approach. Our newest blog post looks at these trends and “tools” within the stormwater toolbox.
